One name likely to come up in several schools’ coaching searches after this season will be Sonny Dykes, Louisiana Tech’s coach. He already has been mentioned on various sports talk radio shows in association with Arkansas’ job and Dykes’ odds of landing the job were listed at 6-1 by Arkansas Democrat-Gazette sports editor Wally Hall on Wednesday.
